I needed that

Today is our neck of the woods, it's muggy, sticky humid... Between my hot flashes and this heat, I'm sweating bullets - not funny, NOT funny AT ALL!

I decided to resist my urge to pack some more and took it easy. I went to City Hall to get a permit for our Garage/Moving Sale. While the permit was being printed the lady started chating about being "Garage Sale Season". I told her, that we were actually having a "Moving Sale". Naturally she asked where we were moving to. The look on the lady's face when I said we where leaving the suburbs for downtown. Priceless. Especially when I mentioned that we lived in the "stinky" part of Pierrefonds. She didn't really pursue the conversation, funny how that is.

Then, in order to cool off, I decided to go to the mall. I needed some "summery" pants, and since I don't really do Capris (I find I look funny in that lenght of pants - I rather wear shorts, skirts or pants), I had to walk around the mall for a bit, and $200+ later I came out, with a Laura Secord's cherry ice cream cone, two pairs of pants and two t-shirts...

Aaahhh.... that felt good.

Oh yeah, I forgot! To top it off, the pants I bought were both a size smaller than usual - woohoo!

Sorry i havent been commenting much! bad me...

Woo for tiny trousers! I know what you mean about capris, i look very chunky in any kind of cropped trou. Prefer a flowy skirt arrangement.

kim: It had been so long since I've had some ice cream from there... yummmy! ;-)

pigeon: Busy, not bad you!
For some reason I don't think capris would be a good goth look...

lizgwiz: One size at the time, I'll get to it...

christina: Thanks, slowly but surely.

mama en fuego: Welcome to my world! It's weird because I tend to get rid of my smaller clothes faster than my "fat" clothes... Hope you'll come back soon!

A size smaller is awesome! I probably would have celebrated and bought two pairs.
